Special guest Ryan Weadon of Ex-Rated Movies Podcast joins us to explore such mysteries as:

WHERE, oh where, is Doc Hayward?

IS it actually romantic to call someone “the love of your life” when you’re only in your early thirties?

WHO is that mysterious woman in the bright blue dress?

And of course…
